U2: With Or Without You Transcribed by Zdenek Kunicky (zdenekkunicky@seznam.cz) Note that the chords are very simple and a four chord pattern repeats throughout the whole song. Here is my proposal how to make it sound interesting on a single guitar- remember that the whole song is about strumming.. feel free and add more action as the song goes on. Mute the strings that should not be played. Intro: | D5 | | | || | D5 | A5 | D5/B | G5 || 2x D5 A5 D5/B See the stone set in your eyes G5 D5 A5 D5/B G5 See the thorn twist in your side I wait for you D5 A5 D5/B Sleight of hand and twist of fate G5 D5 A5 D5/B G5 On a bed of nails she makes me wait and I wait without you D5 A5 D5/B G5 With or without you, with or without you D5 A5 D5/B Through the storm, we reach the shore G5 D5 A5 D5/B G5 You gave it all but I want more, And I'm waiting for you D5 A5 D5/B G5 With or without you, with or without you ah-ha D5 A5 D5/B G5 I can't live with or without you | D5 | A5 | D5/B | G5 || (From here add more strumming) D5 A5 D5/B G5 And you give yourself away, and you give yourself away D5 A5 D5/B G5 And you give and you give, and you give yourself away D5 A5 D5/B G5 My hands are tied, my body bruised D5 A5 D5/B G5 She got me with nothing to win and nothing else to lose And you give yourself away, and you give yourself away And you give and you give, and you give yourself away With or without you, with or without you ah-ha I can't live, with or without you D Asus4 D/B Gsus2 D Asus4 D/B Gsus2 Ohhhhhhh Ohhhhhhhhhh Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh D Asus4 D/B Gsus2 With or without you, with or without you oh-h D Asus4 D/B Gsus2 D I can't live with or without you with or without you..
